Kristi Noem says Trump should pick a woman as his running mate

South Dakota governor, once a top possible Trump VP pick, makes remarks amid reports his shortlist is nearly all men

The South Dakota governor, Kristi Noem, said on Sunday that Donald Trump should pick a woman to be his running mate amid reports that her fellow Republican's shortlist is nearly all men.

I think that that would be beneficial, according to the polling that I've seen for him and a lot of swing states, is that having a woman that is helping his campaign makes a difference," she told Dana Bash during an interview on CNN's State of the Union. One in four Republican women haven't made up their minds because they want to have a woman talking to them about the issues they care about. And women aren't monolithic. They don't care about just one issue."
